I don’t like quoting The National Enquirer as a reputable source, but when a story like this breaks you have to share it with everyone you know — according to the Enquirer, Joe McGinniss’ upcoming book Rogue: Searching for the Real Sarah Palin features claims and confirmation that the former governer and Vice Presidential nominee hooked up with three-time NBA All-Star Glen Rice circa 1987, when he was still in college and she was an Alaskan sports reporter. Glen Rice had sex with Sarah Palin. That is today’s actual sports news.

In the book, which will be published on September 20th, McGinniss claims Sarah had a steamy interracial hookup with basketball stud Glen Rice less than a year before she eloped with her husband Todd.

Sarah hooked up with the NBA great, then a 6-foot-8 junior at the University of Michigan when he was playing in a college basketball tournament in Alaska in 1987, the book says. At the time, Sarah, just out of college, was working as a sports reporter for the Anchorage TV station KTUU.

A publishing source told The ENQUIRER that McGinniss claims Sarah had a “fetish” for black men at the time and he quotes a friend as saying Sarah had “hauled (Rice’s) ass down.”

I don’t even know what that means.

I guess the premarital sex is sacred unless you’ve got a chance to hook up with a basketball player. And despite a “fetish for black men at the time” (good job seeing black people as people and not things, Presidential Hopeful), Palin ended up marrying the whitest guy on the planet, and none of her brain damaged kids — and I’m talking about Bristol here, don’t get me wrong — get to paternally claim the stars of NBA Jam. Does Rony Seikaly know about any of this?

In case you’re ready to believe Sarah Palin when she goes on TV later and claims the story is an “out and out fabrication” perpetrated by some portmanteau word combining “media”, “liberal” and “spend-o-crat”, don’t … at least one of the people snuggling in that sleeping bag on a cold, mooseless night in 1980s Alaska is confirming the rumor.

In the book, McGinniss quotes Rice as confirming the one-night stand.

What’s next, are we gonna find out that Manute Bol nailed Michele Bachmann?

do we really still need to note when something like this is interracial

CORRECTION: Todd Palin is not white — not 100% anyways; he’s part Alaskan Native American. They made sure to mention it to play up Republicans liking ppl of color when she was running with McCain.

Rice’s inability to show affection afterwards is the reason why Palin hates black people today. Way to go Glen.

@Troi – Does Bristol actually have a mental handicap? Because if she does, I’ll take it back.

@Scruffy – He’s also the whitest guy on the planet. Already explained that.

Honestly, this will only endear her more to her followers because anytime she is criticized or given bad press about something it turns into a pity party and they all rally to defend her like a retard who got spit on while riding the bus.

Conservative Palin fans annoy me. The liberal obsesson with Palin annoys me. She makes people say things they wouldn’t normally say. And if that doesn’t make sense, then I was just being sarcasticky and stuff.

Hey Brandon Sarah’ son Trig has down’s so saying that any of her children is retarded should be frowned upon. Anyway why bring up her children at all this allegedly happened over 20 years ago.

By: SonOfSpam

09.14.2011 @ 7:01 PM

Fun fact: Sarah named her son “Trig” because the chromosomal anomaly causing Down Syndrome is Trisomy-G, frequently abbreviated Tri-G. I guess what I’m saying is, Sarah named her baby after his condition, and she’s a terrible person.

The fact that this is ” news ” is sad. And ” hauled his ass down ” makes it sound like Darrell Green catching Tony Dorsett in the open field.

WOW – Brandon is both SEXIST and RACIST. Are you still sporting an Obama bumper sticker on your car – or was that removed due to embarrassment long ago like the rest of them?

You do realize there are numerous debunked lies that Joe McGinnis reports in his book? Of course you don’t – because you are only interested in smearing Sarah Palin because Jon Stewart tells you to. Palin is a racist. Palin has a ‘black man’ fetish. Are we supposed to believe both things?

Bottom line is Sarah Palin scares the hell out of the establishment on both sides. There are no depths they will not sink to to smear her (as Brandon proves).

Larry Sinclair claims to have had a cocaine fueled homosexual affair with Barack Obama and names a witness to it. The media and Hollywood completely ignore the story.

Why does a 3rd hand account of a Palin affair by a known smear merchant generate so much more interest when it is likely a fabrication like the rest of the smears in McGinnis’ book? Hmmmm. We have BIAS! Whoda thunk it???

The problem is that people on the left make up these caricatures of Republicans and then believe them fully. Democrat politicians can have faith and that’s OK – but a Republican can’t have faith. They’re ‘Bible clingers’. Are they praying to a different God? Nope. MORE BIAS.

No – people on the left just act like little children and rely on a heavily skewed view of the world so they can justify the misguided beliefs their propaganda masters have fed them. Often they grow out of it in their 30’s and become conservatives.
